Chapter 23: Training with bow for the first time

Joey comes to realize that the blind old man was the master of the famous Hawk’s eye.

He exclaimed in his mind, ” What the hell! He is blind. “

” Master, he is the 5th prince. ” Captain Chao introduced Joey to him.

” Your highness, please have a seat. ” the old blind pointed at a chair nearby.

Joey and Chao took their seats next to each other.

” Your highness, what brought you here today ? ” the old man asked politely with a smile.

” Senior, I heard from Captain Chao that you can give me some pointers regarding the longbow. Also, I prefer you call me ‘Joey ‘ .” He replied.

” Oh! Joey, sorry. I can’t do that anymore. I am retired. ” he said slowly and smoked the pipe lazily.

” Master, please. ” Captain Chao pleaded with him.

” Shut up! Don’t you hear what I said? ” the blind old man scolded him. If someone else heard the great Hawk’s eye scolded by a blind old man, they would not really believe it.

He lazily took out an old book from his space ring and tossed it at Joey.

” Take it. How much you learn will depend on your ability. ” the old man said to him.

Joey caught the book and kept it inside his space ring. Afterward, they drank tea and chatted for a while.

Sometimes later, they excused themselves from the old man. Captain Chao returned back to his residence while Joey returned back to the castle.

Nothing else to do, Joey entered his room. He sat down on the floor and took out the book given by the blind old man. The book had a title, ‘ Basics of Hou Yi’s archery. ‘

” What Hou Yi! Is it his true archery technique ?” he exclaimed and asked himself softly.

( Hou Yi (Chinese: pinyin: Hòu Yì; Wade–Giles: Hou I ) is a mythological Chinese archer. He was also known as Shen Yi and simply as Yi. He is also typically given the title of “Lord Archer”. He is sometimes portrayed as a god of archery descended from heaven to aid mankind. He shot down 9 out of 10 suns in the sky. )

” Let’s see. “

He then opened the book. The first page described the various types of bows with pictures on them. At the bottom of the page, a description was written.

” Everything can be shot down. Gods, devils, and stars can be shot down too. With my bow and arrows in my hand, I fear nothing. “

” Hah, such a pompous statement. This book’s author seems to be a mighty figure,” he murmured and continued his reading.

The next page showed the image of how to hold a bow and arrow. Also how much the string should be pulled for different targets. It looked more like the mathematics of projectiles and calculus that he used to learn back on earth.

Back on earth, Joey really hated mathematics, especially calculus. He tried very hard to understand it but he could not understand the concept at all.

But, now seeing the calculus and projection here, he could understand them at a glance.

” Almost the whole book contains information about mathematics in a way, ” he said to himself.

The last two pages contained detailed information about two archery skills.

The first skill was named ‘ Piercing Lunar ‘ and the other ‘ Sun’s extermination ‘.

The description showed how to use the essence qi in the hands and body in detail.

Joey carefully examined the acupuncture points of the hands in the image carefully. After he digested all the details of the technique, he walked out of his room and approached the training hall to try out these two techniques.

After reaching the training hall, he entered a room specially designed with a magic array for training archery only. Inside the rooms, various bows were kept orderly in a cupboard while many arrows were kept inside various baskets.

He picked up a longbow and tried to hold it as described in the book. Then he also picked up an arrow, put it on the bow, pulled the string, and released it at a target inside the room. He took another and hit the target again. He continued doing the process again and again until he got used to the natural feeling of shooting the arrows.

After several hours of randomly shooting the arrow, his speed of shooting kept increasing.

” Okay, that’s it. Let us try out the techniques,” he murmured to himself.

He closed his eyes and slowly reimagined the whole minute details of the ” Piercing lunar ” technique in his mind. After feeling that everything was already, he opened his eyes then picked up an arrow again. This time, he used the qi essence in his dantian. ( lies in navel area of every cultivator )

Inside his body, the essence qi was moved toward his hand holding the arrow and filled the special 4 pressure points as described in the book. Then, he transferred the qi from the 4 pressure points to the arrow and released the arrow, the arrow quickly hit the target. The target was blasted to dust.

” Such power can even be produced from this arrow,” he said with surprise happily.

After that, he continued experiencing the two techniques again and again until his qi essence dried up in his dentian.

Then he returned back to his room and started chanting the mantra again to refill the qi in his dantian.

Inside Tang Mie lien’s office, Captain Chao was currently with his team before her.

” Princess, I have an urgent report, ” He reported to her.

” Captain, go on,” she said.

“During our journey from the palace to here, we met a king-level winged lion. It already went berserk and killed all the people in the nearby villages. Luckily we met it before it continued its rampage. I think there may be another beast tide somewhere in the Tang nation soon, ” he reported calmly.

” Okay, captain. I will send the report to canon city first. You should worry more about your mission here .” She reminded him.

” Princess, we are ready to go to the cave by next week,” he mentioned to her.

” Good, good. You are dismissed. “

After bowing slightly, they all left the room.

” These days, I hear multiple reports of king-level beasts appearing near human dwelling places. Moreover, all the beasts were always in berserk mode. Is someone controlling them ? ” she mumbled to herself.
